Plant ID-- What's this tree with big leaves

[Gbarce]

I was intrigued by the huge leaves of this plant which I assumed is a tree. What is it?

It was tucked in with a lot of other plants so it was hard to see the whole thing

Looks like Lantana, Ed http://www.floridata.com/ref/L/lant_c.cfm

My hand for scale and a shot of the whole plant

[edric]

Wow, it's not Lantana, Ed

[Gbarce]

Wow, it's not Lantana, Ed

I concur

A friend has guessed some type of Macaranga?

[Central Floridave]

Completely guessing, Is it Tobacco?

I think it could be Leea macrophylla , here is a pic from Thailand ,, and lucky me has some seeds coming .

THanks Mike. It could be the Genus but could still possibly be a different species. The plant in question has a bluish tinge.

Funny that the vendor doesn't know the scientific name either. Actually that's how it is over here.
